RFID Malware: Design Principles and Examples

Overview This paper explores the concept of malware for Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) systems - including RFID exploits, RFID worms, and RFID viruses. This paper presents RFID malware design principles together with concrete examples; the highlight is a fully illustrated example of a self-replicating RFID virus. The various RFID malware approaches are then analyzed for their effectiveness across a range of target platforms. This paper concludes by warning RFID middleware developers to build appropriate checks into their RFID middleware before it achieves wide-scale deployment in the real world.
